TECNO, the global premium smartphone brand of Transition Holdings has launched a new 3GB variant of its SPARK 6 Air smartphone as the company celebrated five million customers since its entry into the Indian smartphone market three years ago.
TECNO saw a surge in volume growth on the back of its SPARK series portfolio, including SPARK Go Plus, SPARK 5, SPARK 5 Pro, SPARK Power 2 and the recently launched SPARK 6 Air, which enabled the company to consolidate its position in the top brands list in that country.
“The landmark five-million customer milestone is a feather in TECNO’s cap and is testament to unwavering commitment to provide our customers with a product that gives them access to premium features at affordable price points,” Arijeet Talapatra, CEO of Transsion India, said in a statement.
“And with the new variant of TECNO SPARK 6 Air, we want to commemorate the faith that TECNO consumers have shown in us and share the joy.”
